AFTER TWO DECADES of climbing, training and coaching we have built up a large and ever-growing library of exercises. This Book was a large project where we wanted to include the different performance factors and the underlying theory, which resulted in us having to limit the selection of exercises due to lack of space. Therefore, in the back of our minds we knew that we had to write the book as well which you now have in your hands.

This book focuses on technique, strength and power, as we wanted to explore these topics further to create variation in and new challenges for your training. Endurance, flexibility and the mental aspects are left out as we feel these are explained in enough detail in The Climbing Bible. In this book, chapter 1 describes exercises to improve anything from the precision of your footwork to long dynos, while chapter 2 features exercises to train specific strength and power.

We hope this book will end up with its pages filled with chalk marks and its cover worn out after living in your gym bag. Our recommendation is that you carry it with you and try at least one new exercise in every training session.

In addition to inspiring both young and old to vary their training, we wish to help parents and coaches create great sessions and make kids even more psyched for climbing. As Stian says, happiness is seeing your children find the same joy in climbing as you do yourself. Chapter 3 therefore features games, technique exercises and physical training ideas for children.
